The late Queen had to extend a royal pardon, and with just one phone call from the palace, Snoop Dogg found himself back in the good graces of the Royals.
This incident underscores the effortless charm and formidable power that the British monarchy wields—something Meghan Markle clearly struggled to grasp during her brief 72-day tenure as a working royal. It raises the question: how did Meghan expect to cultivate meaningful connections within such a short period? Her approach to building relationships with celebrities seems more rooted in wishful thinking and a profound misunderstanding of the influence the Royal Family holds.
Snoop Dogg, who has become an unofficial face of the Olympics, exemplifies the kind of lasting impact that royal connections can foster—an impact that Meghan’s fleeting role in the monarchy failed to achieve. The title “The Prince and his lovely wife” is one that, in common parlance, would never be associated with Meghan Markle. Despite any official titles, the phrase "The Prince and the Princess" is universally understood to refer to William and Catherine, even in the most remote corners of the globe.
When someone mentions "the Queen," the image that comes to mind is almost always that of Queen Elizabeth II, not just any queen. In stark contrast, Meghan and Harry's attempts to remain in the public eye have often been more akin to a series of comedic errors. From extravagant spending sprees to Meghan’s misguided attempts to spark controversy, it’s evident that their royal exit was less about genuine change and more about garnering publicity.
Even with access to taxpayer money for her wardrobe and appearances, Meghan often fell short of looking the part, highlighting a wasteful use of resources. Her efforts to create drama, whether through controversial trips or questionable projects, only emphasize her desperate need for attention. Meghan, having been spoiled by her father and accustomed to getting her way, comes across as a petulant child in the body of a middle-aged woman. The recent rejection by the monarchy, coupled with the subsequent public backlash, has only amplified her tantrums.
Meanwhile, Prince William and Princess Catherine continue to shine effortlessly, as seen in their star-studded video tribute to Team GB. In contrast, Meghan and Prince Harry remain mired in a cycle of missteps and envy. The effortless charm and influence of the Waleses highlight just how far off the mark Meghan’s royal ambitions were. In the grand spectacle of royalty, it’s clear who is making headlines for the right reasons and who is left struggling in the shadows.
